Made in Nepal

For Nepalese billionaire Binod Chaudhary, life doesn’t stop after making it big. He is forever relentless in his pursuit of making it bigger. Wai Wai, his popular noodle brand, is no longer limited to neighbouring India, it has expanded its tentacles across geographies as varied as Serbia, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Bangladesh and Egypt. Despite the passing decade, Binod, a quintessential rebel, ready to push all boundaries, is still fighting fit, looking to pit his pawn against a rival’s knight, usually to the latter’s detriment. In Made in Nepal, Binod details his forays in businesses such as cement, hospitality, telecom, banking and the challenges he takes head on, sometimes succeeding, sometimes learning. Furthermore, Binod takes readers through his political encounters, his succession plan and how he perceives the future of his business empire that has been both a labour of love and the work of a lifetime.
